Renowned for its extreme weather capabilities, The North Face revives an archival classic with its release of the ‘1994 Retro Himalayan Parka’. A jacket synonymous with mountain exploration, the parka initially launched alongside the brand’s first-ever “Himalayan Suit.”

Designed to endure the harshest conditions of the Himalayan terrain, the jacket provides a wearable silhouette while maintaining technical and functional features. The unification of high-performance materials and industrial design details established the parka as an early icon, adopted and embraced by explorers and city dwellers from Antarctica and Everest to Paris and London.

This icon’s latest iteration draws from the same authentic technical aptitudes while innovating for the modern explorer. The jacket incorporates breathable FUTURELIGHT™ technology that brings an upgrade to the outer layer, while the 700-fill responsibly-sourced down provides extensive warmth for the winter months ahead. The 1994 Retro Himalayan Parka also arrives in an array of vibrant colors such as Red Flare and Summit Gold.

The new 1994 Retro Himalayan Parka is available to buy now online on The North Face’s website and select flagship stores.
